enought for the porvoses of a rational amusement, as the following extract 101 show:— • TIIE' BETRAYEII. (From the Inspector,,and Literary Revicii , .) " Plus regri ex abitu viri, quam ex adventn voluptatis cepi." PLAUT. AM.ritlT. Thy treachery wounded more than love did charm ! We need not resort to the ussenlightened periods of seciety, or the more enthusiatic ages of chivalry and romance, for piettiree of Misery to lament over, or for sorry tales to excite the sympathy of a tear. if the ninatomtlecentnty be removes' from the ittrupt brutalities of former tittles, it daily . produces characters - of a po lished ferocity, whose basis, however concealed by a refined super structure, is founded on the sante. depraved . principles which wan toned in the breast of a barbarian, Butsnch in the glues of un feeling fashion, so indiscriminating .ie: it* censure and applause, that the gentle victim is often crushed with contempt, what the destroyer goes unreproved, and--.shame on the truths that corrobo rates the assertion—.frequently caressed ! Custom not only reconciles depravity to the opinjons of men, but it hardens at the same time the tenderest sympathies of huma nity. \'That lem about to relate, is nu occurrence of Inantic creation; it passes frequently before our eyes; t'sl hear the me lancholy circumstances, and sometimes deign to throw a glance of pity when it crones us in our rambliege ; but few, very few, are there, No moulded to the gentle attributor of benevolence,' as to apply. reprehension where it is most merited, and drop a tear of mercy over tin, destinies of the betrayed. It w0u1..!, be something beyond an excusable weakness for me to edtloccre the cause of indiscretion, however I might entuloVe with the, sufferer ; silence in this case would he the most charitable ten ':terness : but where is the man who thinks, and does not regret to observe the little distinction rate' paid in the maledictions And judgments pronounced over the frailties of humanityl—l.allude more particularly to those of women. In their most deplorable aberrations, they ought to awaken, at least, a feeling allied to pity, and his heart must be made of very stern stuff, who does not mollify resentment on beholding herremerse. When a man com mits an act of flagrancy, he has energies to support him, and re sources for a refuge, to which women can never retreat. They, from the laws which govern their sex, ate condemned to hear a more solitary lot :----embosomed in the secrecy of anguish, repent ance must work its renovation, or de air rankle on an aching heart. Notwithstanding their comparative loneliness of feninne, when the young and innocent, the impassioned creature of deep and fervid love, deviates from the ways of virtue; how harsh and unmodified are the ,'ensures of either set nn the fallen sister ! as if the stabs of treachery were not of themselves ample WOUlltid fm. her ill-fated lot. When women love, .they are the most pliable and submissive ettatures imaginable. They have fixed their dusting bosom's af- Action on an object, and it at once becomes the idol of its inmost sigh—they partake of a fancied union, and anticipate its luxuries — to their' fond hearts a beloved one is their world, where aU that is delightful, all that is charming, is centered. When 'present:, they fondle their gazes to his meeting eyes; when absent, they wit his image, awl idolize . the visionary resemblance.. It is thus that we may account fur the unfortunates whose lavish and Misting tond nem' meets with a villain who is base enough to betrayit. Seldom is it that any ; woman endowed with the.aebttimenta of virtue, ever dreams of seduction when first . she fixes her affections : she cannot anticipate an event, the innocency of her heart, and the admiration for her lover, equally 'ejects. HoW is it then that we hear of so many trail victims? With very rare exceptions, it is the man who is the cause of female ruin. By the tenderest acquiescence to all her little whims and playful fancies, by constant professions of love and sentiment, and au overweening delicacy in the least performances of Love's offices, he gradually identifies himiielf with her he professes to adore: his love overpowers her every other consideration, but the tenderest anxiety to. oblige, observe, and gratify him. Like a beautiful path. decked with flowers, but that conducts a careless pasSenger to a precipice, she r oams unsuspect ingly in the path of love, nor dreams of concluding it in misery ; till lost to the vigilance of . reason and prwlence, in an unguarded and unexpected moment, she yield* to her lover, who, like the snake winding itself round the übject he poisons, consummates her love in shame and disgrace. MANCIIEWVER, SAlmtnny Evicti &No, Sri..3l). (FROM (Mit übvd We have had thro4h the•present week a very ani mated demand for tttvery kind olgoods, and the gene ral appearance of things is much improved. Should the inquiry continue, there is every probability of a still ibrther advance prices, a circumstance that would give additional spirit to our merchants, and tend much to give employment to bur work-people. In 'calicoes, for printing, a further advance from Hd. to 6d. per piece, has been realised ; and for heavy goods, the demand continues very good, at an ad vance of from 5 to 7i par cent: on last week's prices. Yarns of every kind are much inquired after, and prices are gradually creeping up. The Inisiness done in cot ton, both here and in Liverpool, at advanced prices, has been considerable. Such, indeed, has been the feeling manifested in the Liverpool Market, during the last few days, that we are almost afraid our friends there are too sanguine, and that, should they continue to evince the same wish of thus pushing things beyond their natural' level, the' consequence will be highly injurious, both to themselves, and to the trade in general. STATE OFnir)ith We copy the following from the Leafs If:fere:ay of Sa turday, Sept. 30:-- The transition from a state of languor to a state of great activity in the . woollen and w•orsted stuff manufactures has been more sudden in Leeds and Bradford than could have been expected. At present most of our manufactories are well employed; some of them' are working seven days, others eight - days in. the week, and in one case,, at least, night and day, with a prospect of continuance till the spring. As to the continuance of this state of things, we see nothing*tO fear, if the producer of the raw material is moderate in his demands. Wool has now attained to a tolerably fair remunerating price, at which we always wish to see it; but any attempt to raise the price unduly, would check that wholesome stream of prosperity which has set in so auspiciously upon the manufacturing districts of the country, and ht. the benefit'of which the farmers already • partake. We cannot help 'thinking that, with prudence and tnoderation, trade will be good and even brisk during the approaching winter.

NAVAL tNTELLIGENCt: • (From the Hampshire teie g raph.) Pour3atot:Tos Sok. 30.—0 n Wednesday Ns Majesty', frigate the Naiad, 'Capt. lion. Robert C. Spencer, arrived here from the Mediterranean station (where she had been three years) to be paid off. She was released from qua rantine yesterday, and came intn.harbour. The Naiad had latterly been employed at Trieste, Venice, and Arcona, which last4iamed place she left the 15th of August, and Malta, the 27th of that mon& it was understood, but tot actually known, that uka Cochrane was waiting at Messina for the assembling of his ships. Sir littrry Neale had left Malta in the Revenge, 74, with provisions and supplies for that putt of the squadron employed in the Archipeltio; and the Sybille, for the coast of Syria. The Glasgow and Talbot had arrived from Engled; the latter, and the Gannet, Weazle, and Matta, were at Malta when the Naiad sailed. Captain Gordon (late first Lieutenant. of the Sybille, who was se verely wounded in an attack on the Greek pirates) came passenger in the Naiad, On Wednesday the ship Barrett' Junior, arrived here from Calcutta, having fifty-two passengers on hoard, and duplicates of • the. despatches (the originals were sent by Captain Snodgrass,in the Osprey, which itcnot yet arrived) relative to the Burman and Bhurtpore • Treaties of Peace. This ship left Calcutta on the 2d of May, the Mauritius on Jane 26 (having Bring her foremast, she was detained there a month refitting), and St. Helena on the Ilth of August. \%'e learn with sincere satisfaction, that India was never in a more ecu iv state of peace, than when this ship sailed. The brilliant attack and destruction of the enemy's force at Bhurtpore (the key of tipper India).had made such an impression on all the Rajahs,whom the revolt of that Rajah had stirred up, that they had since offered the Most sub missiVe conditions, as a scentity for their future fealty and good behaviour. Lord Cumbertnere had returned to Calcutta,and his gallant army to their several cantonments. The 13th King's Regiment had arrived at Calcutta from Rangoon re duced from 1000 strong to 130 firelocks. Some reinforce ments were about to be sent to Arracan, which, by the late Treaty, is to become a British Port, It is probably the most unhealthy spot in the world—not excepting Cape Coast. Cheduba being attached to the newly-raised provinces, placed under our protection, will form a conservative break between the Burman and our Bengal possessions.—The ship Commodore Hayes had been accidentally burnt to the water's edge in the river Hougly.—The ship Hibberte had just arrived from England.—Dr. Hyne, who was appoint 'ed to accompany the late excellent Bishop of Calcutta, in his visitation tour, died at Tanjort: on the Bth of April.— The Calcutta papers of April 23, state the arrival there of the Rev.

Bris bane was quite well. The terms of the 7%.caty of Peace con cluded with the Burmese was carrying into effect. About :.!000 of our troops had been embarked, and about 10,000 where. Waiting at Rangoon for means of conveyance back to the respective Preiideneies. These wereall that re mained of the immense army sent to that pestiferous coast, with the exception of the Elephant Brigade, and the 18th Native. Infantry, which force had proceeded by land from Sehiguen to Arracan, in eight days, end whence they can attain the Bengal territory. The fine army of General Morrison, which was landed at Arracan, and almost en tirely destroyed in this "Golgotha,' could never discover, from natural impediments, the way over the mountains, down into the valley of the Irrawaddy. It appears that great ignorance prevailed even among the best informed in India, as to the Burmese empire. It now appears, however, that the country is in a miserable state, and its Government in com pletA disorganization. It is estimated, that when the war commenced, the Burmese army consisted of not less than 100,000 men, and that :after the battle of Pegham, it was I doubted whether 10,000 could be collected together in the country. The running of this force appear to have dis persed, and formed themselves into hands of robbers and marauders; as, since the peace was made, the people of Pegu had been most severely harraised by them, in VlO - of the treaty, which declared their Sovereign, the king of Ave, independent of the Burmese E)npire. The eountryOf the Peguese is the most healthy and fertile of any in that part of India, and, therefore, has alWays been a jea lons object ofprey to their ferocious lawless neighbours...—. It will be the business of our ships of war, to - see to the quiet cession of the Provinces of Martaban, Marqui, Tavoy, and )(CH, which territories are in future to be a part of the kingdom of Ave. Thodispatche4 brought home in the Arachne, were in charge of Lieutenant Smith, R.N. - who was absent from his ship with a party of Seamen 14 months, living principally during that time in open boats, and ex posed to the deleterious miasma of the prolific vegetable matter of the low swampy marshes, which almost cover the country..

(Copy) Portsmouth, Sept. 26, 1826. .`Sir James Lyon, in losing so valuable a part of his command as the 37th Regiment, is anxious, in parting with them, to express his earnest wishes for their continued honour and success. These wishes are called forth by the exemplary conduct of this corps since their first entrance into the garrison ; it has been marked by the strictest attention to every military duty, and has secured the 37th Regiment from one single complaint being made against them. Sir James Lyon is sensible of tlie unwearied exertions of Lieut.- Colonel Borer, in perfecting the, discipline of his corps; and its appearance, when inspected yesterday, in marching order, with almost every recruit in the ranks, gave proof of the success which has attended them. Lient...Colonel Burer is entitled therefore to his sincere thanks; and, in requesting him to accept them, the Major-General begs he will assure his officers, non-commissioned officers, and men, that it will afford him the greatest satisfactson if the chance of the. service should again lead him to the honour of haring the 37th Regiment intrusted to his charge.

Though the Cominander-in-Chief has approved and eon. firinetl the proceedings of the Court-Martial on bombadier Herbert, his Lordship eindlnt pass over the finals of the . Court on the first charge, without expressing his senti ments that sufficient evidence was produced to prove that ,bombadier Herbert did volinitarily desert to the enemy, as it is clearly in evidence, that having broken his arrest, he went close under the walls of the fort (there being no rause for presuming that he was ignorant of his road) in company with two men, with whom he appeared to have been in communication, and on being seized, surrendered himself without resistance. The' above' sentence of' death on bombadier William Herbert, of the 4th company 3d battalion of Artillery, is to be carried into execution o'Monday, the 30th instant, at seven A.M., on the cavalier of . the north-cast angle of the Fort of Bhurtpore.

The Cominander-in-Chief has confirmed the proceedings of the General Court-Martial on gunners John O'Brien and Jetties Hennessey, as thereby the service will be relieved from these infamous characters ; but his Lordship feels called upon to mark his strong disapprobation of the sen tence which has been awarded them, so totally inadequate to the crime of which they were found guilty on the most complete evidence ; and his Lordship cannot but remark on the conduct of the Members of the Court, in persisting, after their duty was pointed out to them, in a sentence, whereby it would be supposed that the crime of desertion, attended with circumstances of a most aggravated nature, could be expiated, except by the penalty authorized by law, and enforced by the invariable practice of war. BY order of his Excellency the Commander-in• Chief, W. L. WATSON, Adjutant-General of the Army. FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Journal des Debals, of Thursday.) NFL's, SEPT. 27.—The movements of the great States of Eastern Etiropt, becomes daily more animated. The diplomatists can no longer dissemble the approach of a crisis which may easily become general. _ _ The news from Odessa, and from Bucharest, does not announce the result of the fires at Constantinople ; but there can be no doubt that that disaster was the effect of discontent, and was intended as a cover to the project of a revolt. The bostandgi who have been attempted to be enrolled by force, in the new army, are the authors of the conflagration which suddenly burst forth at the moment that the Sultan was about to come solemnly forth at their head. The whole of the palaces of the grandees have fallen a prey to the flames. The ancient corps of the firemen and porters who have been disgraced as - well as the Janissaries, and who are ani mated by the same feelings of resentment, would not lend the least assistance to save the palaces of their enemies. The common people of Constantinople have so little to lose,.that a fire to them is litde else than a show. But the most important news, if confirmed, is, that the new sol diery themselves have quarrelled, and that the interior of the Seraglio is in a state of frightful disorder, and the life of the Sultan menaced. It must be confessed, at the same time, that.no certain news can be well expected, for Pens itself is in the greatest alarm ; the palaces of the Ambassadors, deprived of their ancient and faithful Janis saries, are alMost without guard and means of defence. Is there no cause for fear, that an unbridled populace, persuaded that the Francs, the giaours, are the instigators of the reformers of Mahmoud, should carry fire into the midst of the halls, whence certain Diplomatists sent forth lately offi tie! articles so tranquillizing and so favourable to the Sultan. It is certain that uneasiness prevails at Vienna, and the nietaniques have experienced a fall; they were down to 89, but they have. arisen again a little. Some commercial letters announce news of a graver import, such as the ras sage; of the Pruth, but without any guarantee of its truth. The Russian army will, probably, make no forward move-• molt until the 7th of October, and then only to occupy Wallachia and Moldavia. The correvontlents from Vienna, and some of. the Journalists at Paris, ought to accustom themselves to a little less precipitation in the steps which they attribute to these armies; these premature reports serve only to render public opinion less estimable in the eyes, of those who are already sufficiently inclined to con temn it. Amongst. the reports that have reached us from Vienna one only merits serious attention; 'tis that which announces a Family Congress,formed of all the branches of the Im perial House, comprehending , the sccundo-genitures of Tuscany and Modena. The ostensible object is to regulate some business relative to the succession of the immense private property of the flintily; and as M. de Metternich is Chancellor of the family (haus-kaatzler), his presence at this Congress is very naturally accounted for. Those who know the passion of the High German aristocracy for hereditary estates, and to preserve the person and the sys tem' of M. de Metternich at all hazard::, suspect this Con gress has a higher object, and that a succession much more important than that of hereditary domains will be discussed at it. Another interior cause May have its share in the uneasiness of the Court of Austria. The Di, of Hungary persists in remaining assembled, while the Court employs every secret means to engage it to separate, which it cannot do, without giving up the heavy complaints it has made of violations in the Constitution—complaints to which it has hitherto been able to extract but unsatisfactory and equivocating answers. The Ministerial partyin Hun gary has at length perceived the danger which may one day result from the 'neighbourhood of a colossal power, which formerly, by defending with apparent generosity the Dissenters of Poland, oppressed by the Republic, in spite of treaties, succeeded at last in subjugating almost all the Polish territory. There are Dissenters in Hungary; also the, Oriental Greek Church is very powerful there, and nearly the half of the Hungarian Nobility belongs to the two Evangelical Communions. Their complaints are loud ; they are wounded in all their constitutional rights. The constant reply of the Emperor is, that he; personally, is a friend to liberty of worship, but that he is merely consti tutional King of Hungary. The Hi g h C at h o li c Cl ergy Of Hungary are entirely devoted to the Court, and have been advised by M. de Metternich to cajole the Protestants, and, above all, to put an end to the pecuniary exactions which they allowed with respect to them. While Austria casts towards every quarter looks more or less auxious, Russia appears to fear nothing either on the part of the Persians or the Turks, who are but' petty enemies, or on the part of the secr e t societies. Meanwhile, the minute care with which the Grand Duke Constantine is excluded of all participation in the succession and the Regency has this inconvenience, that it leaves always ex isting some suspicion of combinations, in opposition to the established order of things, although those suspicions may appear quite devoid of foundation.

There is much talk here of an incident which the Sultan met with a short time before the fire , broke out. The Sultan Mahmoud, is going in pomp to Eskai Serai, in the midst of his body guard, having noticed, in the crowd, a man with a thick black beard, a green turban, and of a peculiar physiognomy, ordered him to be arrested.
